RLM Architects were delighted to be involved in this project for a new health centre in Bournemouth which was officially opened earlier this week. We worked alongside Dorset HealthCare, Mabey Francis, Calcinotto and Spetisbury Construction to bring modern healthcare facilities into the heart of the Winton community.
The building has been unused since July 2023 following its closure. It will now be home to Banks and Bearwood GP practice and a range of community health services run by Dorset HealthCare including the following:
• paediatric services
• children's speech and language therapy
• podiatry
• leg ulcer clinics
• community oncology
• heart failure clinics
• health visiting, school nursing and district nursing
• NHS talking therapies for mental health.
The first patients will be seen at the GP practice from 1 September, with community health services launching shortly afterwards.
